systemctl enable docker && systemctl start do         


        

Answer 1

I suggest using the official pkg on Mac. I guess docker-compose is no longer included with docker by default: https://docs.docker.com/toolbox/toolbox_install_mac/

Answer 2

I'm installing on a Raspberry Pi 3, with Raspbian 8. The curl method failed for me (got a line 1: Not: command not found error upon asking for docker-compose --version) and the solution of @sunapi386 seemed a little out-dated, so I tried this which worked:

First clean things up from previous efforts:

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo pip uninstall docker-compose

Then follow this guidance re docker-compose on Rpi:

sudo apt-get -y install python-pip
sudo pip install docker-compose

For me (on 1 Nov 2017) this results in the following response to docker-compose --version:

docker-compose version 1.16.1, build 6d1ac219

Answer 3

The above solutions didn't work for me. But I found this that worked:

sudo apt-get update -y && sudo apt-get install -y python3-pip python3-dev
sudo apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io
curl -fsSL get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
sudo sh get-docker.sh
sudo pip3 install docker-compose
#sudo docker-compose -f docker-compose-profess.yml pull ofw
sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
sudo reboot

Answer 4

docker-compose is currently a tool that utilizes docker(-engine) but is not included in the distribution of docker.

Here is the link to the installation manual: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

TL;DR:

curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.8.0/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/bin/docker-compose

(1.8.0 will change in the future)

Answer 5

I'm installing on a Raspberry Pi 3, on Raspbian OS. The curl method didn't resolve to a valid response. It also said {error: Not Found}, I took a look at the URL https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.11.2/docker-compose-Linux-armv7l and it was not valid. I guess there was no build there.

This guide https://github.com/hypriot/arm-compose worked for me.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https
echo "deb https://packagecloud.io/Hypriot/Schatzkiste/debian/ jessie main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hypriot.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 37BBEE3F7AD95B3F
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install docker-compose

Answer 6

On Linux, you can download the Docker Compose binary from the Compose repository release page on GitHub. Follow the instructions from the link, which involve running the curl command in your terminal to download the binaries. These step-by-step instructions are also included below.

1:Run this command to download the current stable release of Docker Compose:

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.26.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

To install a different version of Compose, substitute 1.26.2 with the version of Compose you want to use.

2:Apply executable permissions to the binary:

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Note: If the command docker-compose fails after installation, check your path. You can also create a symbolic link to /usr/bin or any other directory in your path.
